Isn’t the point of this meme that the elder is always telling the truth, but it’s so alien to the youth that they don’t believe it? Like, “back in my day, to call someone on the telephone you had to spin a dial, wait for it to return, and do this for each digit of a 5-digit number”.
This is a misuse of the template, that seems to imply Trump is right.
Edit: After conducting some research quickly glancing at the Know Your Meme entry of this, it seems that the template has mixed usage. Including “a no longer popular opinion stated by the elder”, and just straight up dismissing rambling of an elder. But vast majority of the examples still lean into my original setup.
One of my recent comments literally has “um actually”, albeit in a humorous way, so I’m not saying that I’m not that guy. But you can’t just counter every correction towards you with that image. Even though I like how the massive man-boobs defy the limits of the frame.
Or “you know dog shit used to be white. You would see little piles of white dog shit when walking. Sometime during the 90s or 00s it stopped. Now when I see dog shit it’s just normal shit colored. The weird part is no one talks about it. Am I taking crazy pills?”
Every time I’ve seen this template it’s a demented geriatric rambling about Jewish space lasers and the woman saying, “uh huh sure whatever you say, let’s get you back to your nursing home gramps.”

It still turns white, if you leave it sitting for about a month. People are picking it up now.
Make America Great Again. Leave the dog shit.
It’s most likely you were taking crazy pills(or shrooms) back in the nineties and stopped …
